March Madness.....

The old saying goes “March comes in like a lion and out like a lamb” and there couldn’t be more truth in this for us. March started with a late night excursion to the Emergency Room after Drew tore his Achilles tendon in a basketball game. We were thrown for a loop with Dr.’s appointments, surgery and recovery.

It’s 1 am: Do you know where your Achilles is???? Drew is NOT a happy camper.

It’s now 5 am and Drew is bandaged up and feeling slightly better. He’s ready to schedule surgery for later this week.


He makes it through the surgery and is on the road to recovery. We’re both all smiles and thankful for the good work of the doctors at Johns Hopkins.



Drew’s new mode of transportation. Life on crutches in a 4 story rowhouse is not fun!! Keep your fingers crossed for a speedy recovery.



In the meantime, we had a Duckpin Bowling Party to celebrate Jackie turning 30 (ouch!). The jury is still out on which hurt more: Jackie reaching middle age or Drew’s torn tendon!!??!!



About 40 of our closest friends and family came out to celebrate the big day.

Getting Ready to Party……


Testing out the keg……..


Poor Drew couldn’t bowl.

Could this be the World’s Biggest Birthday Cake?????


Hanging out…..

Finally, we ended the month with a laid back Easter dinner at Jackie’s Sister’s house.



Let’s hope April is less crazy.
